The seventh week of the reality show Bigg Boss Tamil 3 had one eviction and one elimination. On Monday, the organisers eliminated actor Saravanan from the show after his flippant confession of having sexually harassed women on buses during an episode in the previous week. Though the actor registered his unconditional apology during another episode, the producers of the show took this action following widespread criticism by netizens, including celebrities such as Chinmayi Sripada.
The seventh week in the show concluded with Sakshi's elimination.The actor had managed to be in the game in the last couple of weeks although the audience at large had been keen to see her out. The Bigg Boss house has now shrunk to 9 members. Sakshi Agarwal, Losliya and Abhirami were also in the danger zone of the eviction.
Sakshi is the seventh contestant to be shown the door after Fathima Babu, Vanitha Vijayakumar, Mohan Vaidya, Meera Mithun, Reshma and Saravanan. Meanwhile, one more new entrant has entered the house as a wildcard contestant. Actor Kasthuri is the newly-arrived housemate, who is gradually finding her way to acquaint herself in the house.
The week started off with a cold war between Mugen and Abhirami, as during an interaction between Mugen, Sakshi and Abhirami about Reshma's eviction Sakshi unnecessarily asked Abhirami that if she has any issue if she talks with Mugen.This escalated the tension between Sakshi and Abhirami. Abhirami left the place in tears. Mugen came forward to pacify Abhirami. Mugen, who was furious over the current situation, damaged a bed with his bare hands in a fit of rage. The next morning, Abhirami apologised to Sakshi and they both made up with a hug and vowed to remain friends just like they were before.
As a luxury budget task, coins with 20, 50, 100 points were thrown out in the garden area. The contestant who collects the maximum points was to be declared the winner of the task and to be exempted from next week’s eviction. While Sandy scored the maximum points, Saravanan who got eliminated later, got the second position. After a cordial interaction with Kasthuri, the housemates chose Sandy, Cheran and Losliya as the best performers of the luxury task and they took part in the captaincy task which was judged by Kasthuri. Sandy won and he got elected as the captain of the house.
During the weekend episode, putting a fullstop to all speculation, Kamal Hassan asked about the relationship between Abhirami and Mugen. Mugen replied saying that it is just friendship. He admitted that he has a girlfriend outside the house and that he considers Abhirami as his best friend. Abhirami also said that her friendship with Mugen would not hamper his game at any cost.
